Does heaven exist? It is called The Kingdom of God.
![]() Does hell exist?Yes, but not in the way most seem to believe it. It is an eternal cutting off from God, which people do themselves. I don't believe in some fiery pit. Is there any form of afterlife?Yes, there is a ressurrection Is Heaven a geographical or spiritual place? I get the feeling it is both of those things How does one enter heaven? Through the narrow gate. ![]() If you believe in heaven, what do you think it is like? I wouldn't know, but I am sure it is nice. Is it possible that a baby or young child would go to hell? No. Do animals go to heaven/hell? If so, what determines where they go?They talk about animals in Revelation. Is there a "hierarchy" in heaven?Yes, God is the head Are you going to heaven? Can I say yes without sounding big-headed? Kidding, yes.Are you going to hell?People get cut off from God by their own choosing. Do you know (or know of) anyone who claims to have been to heaven or hell? If so, do you believe them? There may be some truth in what they say. Have you been to heaven/hell? If so, describe the experience. Not yet. Is there anything an individual can do which would prevent them from ever being able to enter heaven, no matter what changes they made in their lives? There is only one unforgivable sin, which is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, and I have never heard anyone do that. |

Only life after death is the continuation of other life Is Heaven a geographical or spiritual place? potential geographical or within us How does one enter heaven? By helping make the world a nicer place for others (and also for yourself). If you believe in heaven, what do you think it is like? where we can do our own thing without hurting others Is it possible that a baby or young child would go to hell? they can grow up in hell (see above answers) Do animals go to heaven/hell?

I can answer in my own opinion as I am not a part of a religion as such!
![]() Does heaven exist? yes Does hell exist? yes Is there any form of afterlife? yes Is Heaven a geographical or spiritual place? well I would say both as it is not here so its geographical and our spirits go there so it must be spiritual How does one enter heaven? Well first you have to die and then its up to God if you deserve to by following is commandments, believing in him etcIf you believe in heaven, what do you think it is like? Ever been in a plane when you are above the clouds and the sun is shining on them and its a floor of white flufiness - its peaceful, beautiful and breathtaking - well that is what I imagine it to be like - full of happiness Is it possible that a baby or young child would go to hell? No as every child is born innocent and have committed no sin - mainly as they are too young to break any of the commandments - just imagine "There has been a robbery - the suspect, 1ft tall, no hair, had a dummy in his mouth!" hehe.... ![]() Do animals go to heaven/hell? If so, what determines where they go? All animals go to heaven - ever watched the film "All dogs go to heaven" hehe... but seriously I cant see how an animal could possibly break any of the commandments either! Is there a "hierarchy" in heaven? It would make logical sense that there was as different people have lived life differently. It simply wouldnt be fair for someone who was so devout, never broke a single commandment went to the same place with someone who constantly made mistakes but overall believed in God. Are you going to heaven? I hope so, but thats for God to decide and for me to do my best to follow his commandments Are you going to hell? I hope not but thats for God to decide and me to do my best no to break any of the commandments and lose faith in God. Do you know (or know of) anyone who claims to have been to heaven or hell? If so, do you believe them? I dont know of anyone no! Have you been to heaven/hell? If so, describe the experience. If I have I cant remember it! Is there anything an individual can do which would prevent them from ever being able to enter heaven, no matter what changes they made in their lives? Hmm, not sure on this one as ultimately the decision lies with God, but many religions say that the ultimate sin is not believing in God once you have been given the knowledge. Which does make sense. It would be silly to invite someone into your house if you dont even know them? ![]() |

Does heaven exist? I believe so.
Does hell exist? In a sense. Is there any form of afterlife? I believe so. Is Heaven a geographical or spiritual place? Spiritual. How does one enter heaven? I don't know. I believe it has something to do with God's grace...and possibly our good works, too. If you believe in heaven, what do you think it is like? Being with God? Intoxicating happiness. Is it possible that a baby or young child would go to hell? Absolutely not. Do animals go to heaven/hell? If so, what determines where they go? No way. I think they probably are reincarnated. Or they just go straight to Heaven. Meh? Is there a "hierarchy" in heaven? I don't believe so. Are you going to heaven? Someday. Are you going to hell? You can't "go" to hell, IMO. I see hell as the illusion of being separated from God. Do you know (or know of) anyone who claims to have been to heaven or hell? If so, do you believe them? First question: No. Second question: N/A Have you been to heaven/hell? If so, describe the experience. Not that I can recall. Is there anything an individual can do which would prevent them from ever being able to enter heaven, no matter what changes they made in their lives? I don't think so. But some people certainly seem to have their work cut out for them...

i'm looking at it right now through my window. so yes. as for the mythical place where god lives and everything is beautiful and harmless, i have no reason to believe it is real. it is infinitely more probable that it is a mythical concept made up by people who dreamt of 'a place where there are no problems'. like the greek made up the 'elysian fields'.
i have no reason to believe it does. i cannot say. probably not. i have never heard any reasonable argument as to why there would be. it is a mythical concept. by rocket or aeroplane, i suppose. i have a fear of flying. according to some, yes. but their claims are completely baseless and doesn't matter at all to me. yes. no.
